Saucony has announced that three-time Canadian Olympic marathoner and Saucony athlete Malindi Elmore will be wearing the game-changing Endorphin Elite 2 during the upcoming marathon in Paris. The Elite 2 is the brand’s race-ready super shoe featuring a new groundbreaking foam designed to unlock every runner’s performance potential. Elmore has an impressive history in Canadian athletics, having been selected to race the marathon in Tokyo in 2020 and the 1500m track race at the 2004 Games in Athens. The mother of two recently won the Canadian 10km Championships in 32:50 at the age of 44 while wearing the Elite 2 in preparation for her build-up to Paris in August.
For those eager to experience the Endorphin Elite 2, the race-ready shoe will go on sale starting July 1 at 10:00 am EST at saucony.com. The Endorphin Elite 2 will launch globally in Spring 2025 and be available for purchase at saucony.com and select retailers.
“Malindi’s years of running success have culminated in her third appearance at the Games as well as the development of the Endorphin Elite 2,” said Brian Moore, chief product officer for Saucony. “Alongside our other elite athletes including Jared Ward and Vanessa Fraser, she has contributed to its development both in our performance lab and out on the roads. At Saucony, we are dedicated to exceeding the expectations of runners, and their feedback drove us to create an aggressive race day shoe that feels fast and unleashes performance potential. With the Elite 2, we are proud to deliver the most innovative product in the super shoe category to the marketplace. We are confident that Malindi will have an exceptional race experience in the Elite 2 at the marathon in Paris.”
